In the Workaholics season 3 episode 12 titled "A TelAmerican Horror Story," the three main characters, Adam, Blake, and Ders, get involved with a sketchy telemarketing scheme. While trying to sell a sketchy subscription service, the boys mistakenly persuade their boss Alice to purchase it.
To make up for their mistake, the boys hatch a plan to convince Alice that her purchase was not a mistake by putting on a horror-themed production. They borrow costumes, props, and a fog machine from a local Halloween store. Throughout the episode, the boys put together a terrifying haunted house in their office building, and things quickly spiral out of control.
In their attempt to make the haunted house experience as realistic as possible, the boys go overboard with the gore and special effects. During rehearsals, Blake accidentally cuts off his finger and Ders loses an eye. Despite these setbacks, the trio refuses to give up on their production.
As the haunted house commences, it becomes clear that the boys have gone too far. The employees of TelAmerican, the telemarketing company they work for, are genuinely terrified. Things take an even more sinister turn when a group of drunk high schoolers stumble into the haunted house and are traumatized by the experience.
Throughout the episode, tensions build between the boys and Alice. She becomes increasingly frustrated with their lack of productivity and the amount of time they are spending on the haunted house. The boys know that their jobs are on the line, so they pull out all the stops to make sure their haunted house is a success.
By the end of the episode, the haunted house is shut down, and Blake and Ders are rushed to the hospital for their injuries. The boys' jobs are on the line, and Alice makes it clear that they will be fired if they don't come up with a plan to rectify the situation.
In typical Workaholics fashion, the boys refuse to accept defeat and come up with a scheme to get the haunted house footage in front of a TV producer. While they ultimately fail in this mission, the episode ends with the boys feeling vindicated and ready for their next big adventure.
"A TelAmerican Horror Story" is an episode that showcases the Workaholics' signature blend of humor, chaos, and heart. It's a must-watch for fans of the show and those who enjoy off-the-wall comedy.
